13.1 Miles Until I Add a Bumper Sticker!

Alright friends, who else has seen those cute little 13.1 bumper stickers that people add to their car once they have completed a half marathon?

I want one.

I WANT ONE SO BAD.

Okay, let me be honest. This is not my only motivation to complete my 1st half marathon in April. (but it may be a little bit...) I've done a handful of 5Ks and two 10Ks before, and I've decided to spice up my life with something WAY MORE courageous. So here goes nothing.

*****

So the real story -- Hi friends, I signed up for my first half marathon a couple weeks ago. It's in April. Who else has their first half marathon coming up? Hit me up! I need motivation (& inspiration) to keep training and friends that are floating down the river on the same boat.

    Your first one will be an amazing experience. From the enthusiasm in your post you will do well. :)

    Might want to join or take a look around in this group, many long distance runners and threads that might help you. I will be doing my 5th and 6th come March and April. You can add me if you like. Best of Luck!!
